Scientific Research Project NAZCA III

Third research project of the Erich von Däniken Foundation for interdisciplinary research into the anomalies of the Nazca/Palpa desert in Peru.

This project is about Nazca in Peru and the lines etched into the desert floor. A World Cultural Heritage Site. The Erich von Däniken Foundation would like to commission the latest scientific research. The EvD Foundation has so far funded two Nazca expeditions. Undertaken by an international team of scientists, connected via Dresden University of Applied Sciences. The anomalies discovered need to be further explored.

With your support, you will be enabling the third phase of the interdisciplinary research of the Nazca/Palpa Plain in Peru, together with the Erich von Däniken.

What is this project all about?

We are looking to raise EUR 65,000. What for? EUR 65,000 is not an insignificant sum.

What will the Erich von Däniken Foundation do with EUR 65,000?

Nazca is fascinating. Because Nazca's gigantic landmarks are many centuries old. The knowledge of a lost culture has been engraved in the dark, ochre subsoil, close to Peru's Pacific coast. These over 60-metre figurative animal designs, two-kilometre trapezoidal shapes, enigmatic markings, lines running straight across cracks in the ground and levelled mountain peaks have yet to reveal their secrets. The Erich von Däniken Foundation would now like to commission the latest scientific research.
What on earth is so important in Nazca?

Firstly: Nazca is enigmatic, secretive and mysterious. The Nazca desert is both clear and opaque. It is magical, beguiling, logical and also absurd. Nazca's message is veiled and obscure; there are many contradictory theories about it. There are no easy solutions for Nazca. Science – or archaeology in Nazca – is attempting to apply our current knowledge and thinking to people who lived a long time ago and whose view of the world was different to our own. For decades, Nazca theories have emerged, all of which have ultimately had nothing convincing to say. Anyone wanting to understand Nazca, must think again. Another question also needs to be addressed – that of the natural sciences. This is the only way we can uncover the secrets of the lines and figurative designs in this rocky desert.

The Erich von Däniken Foundation has therefore funded two previous Nazca expeditions. Undertaken by an international team of scientists led by Dr K. Hartsch and Prof G. Reppchen and connected via Dresden University of Applied Sciences. As well as anomalies in the magnetic field, the scientists also discovered geo-electric irregularities. Electrodes in the soil emitted weak pulses of alternating current. The electrical resistance was then measured. And low and behold, at the intersections of lines and electrical measurement profiles, the measurement values far exceeded the expected result.

It will soon become clear that there are anomalies in Nazca. But why?

  • What materials are the wide, slope-like lines made from?
  • Are there different minerals or geo-chemical element compounds between the desert floor and the 'slopes'?
  • Is there any evidence of any hidden technology that previous investigations have failed to discover, because they simply were not looking for it?
  • Is there any information under the etched lines and figurative designs in the desert floor?
  • Should new measuring instruments be used?

A scientific team from three countries has now found a way of getting to the bottom of this ancient mystery, using new methods. Which universities are involved in the research? Who is involved?

1. Pontificia Universidad Catolica del Peru (Mineralogy and Geo-chemistry)
2. Clausthal University of Technology (Geo-physics)
3. The University of Lausanne - Switzerland (Geo-chemistry and Age Determination)
4. Dresden University of Applied Sciences (Photogrammetry, Satellite Image Analysis)
5. IPRO-Consult Dresden GmbH (geo-scientific management)
6. Erich v. Däniken Foundation (client and investigator).

By Erich von Däniken / Author Presenter Researcher

In the United States, Erich von Däniken won instant fame as a result of the television special “In Search of Ancient Astronauts,” based upon his first book. In 1993, the German television station SAT-1 started a twenty-five part TV series with and by Erich von Däniken, entitled “Auf den Spuren der All-Mächtigen” (Pathways of the Gods). In 1996, the American TV company ABC/Kane produced a one-hour special, filmed all over the world, entitled Chariots of the Gods – The Mysteries Continue. This film was broadcast on the ABC network on September 26th 1996. In 1996/97 ABC/Kane produced another documentary with Erich von Däniken (seen on the Discovery Channel). In Germany, the biggest TV network, RTL, showed the film on November 26th, 1996. 7.7 million viewers in Germany alone watched the program.

Erich von Däniken’s latest book just translated and now published is: Remnants of the Gods. Many things exist in our prehistory, about which we do not have the faintest idea. Stone structures erected by master builders, mysterious underground complexes etc. Erich von Däniken’s publications are available from legendarytimesbooks.com, the online bookstore of his international research association A.A.S. R.A. / legendarytimes.com.

Erich von Däniken’s books have been translated into 32 languages, and have sold 63 million copies worldwide. From his books two full-length documentary films have been produced: Chariots of the Gods and Messages of the Gods. Of the more than 3,000 lectures which Erich von Däniken has given in 25 countries, over 500 were presented at universities. Fluent in four languages, Erich von Däniken is an avid researcher and a compulsive traveller, averaging 100’000 miles each year to remote spots of the Earth. This enables him to closely examine the phenomena about which he writes.

Today, Erich von Däniken lives in the small mountain-village of Beatenberg in Switzerland (40 miles from Berne, above the city of Interlaken). In 2003 the “Mysteries of the World Theme Park”, the Mystery Park, initialized by Erich von Däniken opened in Interlaken, Switzerland. A platform for the presentation and research of the mysteries of the world, including Paleo-SETI, the so called Ancient Astronaut Theory. 2009 the theme park changed its name from “Mystery Park” to “Jungfrau Park”.

Airing in 2010, the ANCIENT ALIENS the documentation of the History channel started. Season 3 of ANCIENT ALIENS – THE SERIES set to premiere SUMMER 2011 on the History Channel! So far, there have been two Seasons of ANCIENT ALIENS – THE SERIES, consisting of 22 hours of network television time! Season 1 featured six 2-hr episodes and Season 2 featured ten 1-hr episodes. In spring of 2011 the History Channel is producing another 15 parts for the extremely successful series Giorgio A. Tsoukalos of the Center for Ancient Astronaut Research and Publisher of Legendary Times Magazine served (and serves) as the series’ Consulting Producer. Season 1 and Season 2 are currently on reruns on the History Channel.

In 1998, Erich von Däniken co-founded the Archaeology, Astronautics and SETI Research Association , A.A.S. R.A. which publishes the English journal Legendary Times™ reporting about the latest research in the Paleo-SETI field. Erich von Däniken has been married to Elisabeth Skaja since 1960. He has one daughter, Cornelia (born 1963), and two grandchildren. Von Däniken is a hobby-chef and a lover of Bordeaux wines.

Erich von Däniken is a member of the Swiss writers association, the German writers association, and the International PEN-Club. He was awarded with an Honorary Doctorate degree by the “La Universidad Boliviana” (“Gral. Jose Ballivian, Doctor Honoris Causa: Trinidad, 12 de febrero de 1975”).

He received the “Huesped Illustre” award from the cities of Ica and Nazca in Peru. In Brazil he received the “Lourenço Filho” award in Gold and Platen, and in Germany he was awarded with the “Order of Gordon Bleu du Saint Esprit” (together with the German astronaut Ulf Merbold). In 2004 he was awarded with the “Explorers Festival” prize. (2003): “Ideas Oscar” in Switzerland for Mysteries of the World Theme Park founder Erich von Däniken.
